While attempting to help a FamilySearch Tree patron I receive:

I was trying to link to Pedigree Resource File. Is this NOT ALLOWED? Hmm I guess I miscategorized this - it should be under Community.

    Community, in its overzealous "helpfulness", can do Bad Things with links. I find that if I leave adding links to the end, after I've typed everything, then the helpfulness isn't triggered.

    So for example, here's a link to a Pedigree Resource File: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/2:2:3KVH-VFX

    I think the "not allowed" message occurs when the link's resolution is account-dependent. Or something.

    @Julia Szent-Györgyi This is just a test to see if that is the behavior I see - using the same link you have. If this resolves it then I think I will just put links toward the end of comments rather than the beginning.

    https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/2:2:3KVH-VFX

    Nope - same error for me. Hmm let me try without ENTER for next line - now that works!

    Why would PRF be account dependent?
